The executioners raised their swords without hesitation and chopped down together!
The cold wind blew outside the Great Wall, and the bleak sunlight shone down from the sky, without a trace of warmth.
Rows of heads were suddenly chopped off, columns of blood spurted out like fountains, and in an instant the world was filled with blood!
The bright red blood dyed the whole world red!
There was even a human head that flew directly in front of the Third Prince's carriage like a naughty football, and fell down with a plop, revealing a pair of eyes that were wide open with unwillingness and despair!
The third prince stood in front of the car door, intending to stand high and see far, but at this moment he regretted it to his heart's content.
Because the human head was getting bigger and bigger in his eyes, and he could even smell the warm smell of blood!
"Plop!" The third prince rolled his eyes and then fell headfirst under the carriage!
His followers and guards had never expected that as soon as they arrived at the border defense army, they would be forced to watch a beheading battle before they could even show off their power.
Having lived in the gentle city of Kyoto for a long time, I have seen romance and decadence, but when have I ever seen such "sacrifice of life and blood"?
Some people were frightened by the smell of blood and their calves cramped, some turned their heads and vomited uncontrollably, and some even rolled their eyes and went to meet the God of Land.
It was a cup of tea later that someone finally noticed that their master, the Third Prince, had fallen to the ground.
The third prince was finally helped up. There was a bump the size of an egg on his forehead. He looked funny and pitiful!
The attendant bravely pinched his master's philtrum and finally rescued him from coma.
The third prince looked around blankly, and suddenly remembered the fear he had just felt, so he shouted at the top of his voice.
“Outrageous! Outrageous!”
Just at this time, the general had already brought his men "urgently" over.
"Oh, Your Highness, Third Prince, I'm so sorry. I thought you would come over tomorrow. I wanted to clear out the prisoners in the camp first, but I didn't expect to disturb Your Highness instead. I'm really sorry!" The general bowed and saluted, showing full courtesy!
The third prince subconsciously wanted to yell, but when he looked up, he saw that the soldiers following the general were covered in blood. They were the ones who had just chopped off people’s heads with swords!
He immediately swallowed all the words and shouted desperately for the eunuch to deliver the imperial edict. Without even reading it out, he climbed onto the carriage using his hands and feet and went back to the post station at the border.
The convoy came quickly and left even faster!
All the soldiers guarding the border saw this and felt extremely contemptuous.
They shed blood and sacrificed their lives to defend their country, and this is the kind of trash they raise?
In other words, are they being harassed and enslaved by such trash every day?
He Xiong spat and cursed in a low voice, "Useless thing! Such a wimp, not even fit to carry shoes for our border guards! And you dare to come here and show off your strength, you must be so bold!"
"That's right, he doesn't even look at where this is! He thinks this is his prince's residence and a women's paradise! He even wants to intimidate us, he's really stupid!" Another deputy general also cursed.
The general signaled them to stop talking, then unfolded the imperial edict and looked at it. His expression remained unchanged as he ordered, "Withdraw the troops and return to camp!"
The soldiers responded with a roar. Those who needed to collect the bodies collected them, those who needed to dismantle the stage dismantled it, and those who needed to clean up the bloodstains cleaned up the bloodstains. In just half an hour, everything was back to normal, as if nothing had happened here...
The Third Prince and his men returned to the inn in a hurry, trembling with fear. Even after taking a shower, changing into clean clothes, and having the room heavily guarded by guards, his legs were still weak.
Close your eyes and you will see the head falling to the ground and blood spurting into the sky!
The eunuchs were also afraid, standing by with their legs limp, and whispered, "Your Highness, the Emperor has ordered you to deliver the imperial edict to the border troops. Now that it's been delivered, shouldn't we go back? It's too dangerous here. I'm not afraid of my own life, but Your Highness, you are a prince, and you must not be harmed in any way.
"I see that the border guards are unruly and disrespectful to Your Highness. To ensure Your Highness's safety, we should return to the palace as soon as possible."
The head guard was also afraid of taking responsibility, so he tried to comfort him, "Yes, Your Highness, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. You are a daughter of gold. If there is any mistake, I am afraid that the emperor will be furious."
The third prince naturally wanted to escape quickly, but he couldn't afford to lose face.
At this moment, the two servants had found an excuse for him, and he immediately ordered, "Get ready and set off immediately. The border troops are so unruly and rebellious, perhaps they have rebellious intentions. Your Highness must inform your father as soon as possible so that we can make countermeasures!"
In this way, before it got dark, the caravan that had come with such arrogance hurriedly escaped from the border at dusk and returned to the palace overnight.
When we arrived at the palace, it was already the afternoon of two days later. The emperor had summoned actors to dance and a group of officials were drinking with them.
Although the eldest prince and the second prince were sitting beside the emperor, smiling and trying to be attentive, they were not happy in their hearts.
Before, they competed for the job of delivering imperial edicts to the border troops, but in the end the emperor gave it to the third son.
Although this may not necessarily be a sign that the emperor has decided to give the throne to the third son, his preference for the third son is always real!
When the two were thinking about how to trip up the third brother in the future, a eunuch came to report.
"Your Majesty, the Third Prince has returned from the border. I noticed that His Majesty looked unhappy, as if he had been wronged."
"Oh?" The emperor's face darkened as he replied, "He went to deliver an imperial decree. Who dared to wrong him?"
After saying that, he ordered the eunuch to bring in the third prince.
The actors immediately retreated, leaving only the officials, who were unaware of what was happening, and the Sixth Prince, who sat at the end of the seat. However, he lowered his head to drink tea, making it difficult to discern his expression...
"Father, wuwu, you have to make the decision for me!" The third prince almost cried all the way in. He ran to the emperor and sat at his feet. He was like a little child who was acting coquettishly and complaining. He didn't look like an adult at all.
But the emperor liked him just like this. He reached out and helped his son up. He looked him up and down to see if he was okay. Then he asked, "What happened?"
The Third Prince naturally could not say that he was frightened like a stray dog, but he just explained how the border guards killed people in front of him and how they disrespected him.
Finally, he cried, "Father, how could General Zhao not know that I had arrived at the border? He did it on purpose! He must be unhappy with you, so he took it out on me!"
One of the more upright ministers immediately said, "Your Majesty, the Third Prince may have misunderstood. The border troops kill spies and bandits every winter to deter foreign invaders."
Perhaps the date wasn't chosen correctly this time, and the Third Prince arrived at the same time. It would be better to send someone back to take care of the grassland meeting."
The emperor did not say anything, but looked at everyone, his meaning was very clear, to see who would take the initiative to take the task.
But the border guards were so unruly that no one could please them, so everyone, including the eldest prince and the second prince, bowed their heads.
At this moment, perhaps because the Sixth Prince was too frightened, the teacup in his hand accidentally bumped into something, and the crisp sound was unusually clear in the quiet hall!
Then, everyone looked up at him...
